Heard Museum in McKinney, Texas

Through the Conservation Trust and the Heard Museum, IWRC has
established a temporary emergency shelter for raptors at the Heard
Museum in McKinney, Texas. The Heard Museum can accommodate up to 175
birds of prey. If you are in need of emergency shelter for captive or
wild birds of prey, please contact Lee Theisen-Watt at 972-712-9606 or
972-658-0213. We would like to express our gratitude to John Ernst, the
museum's director.

Rebecca McKeever (Lone Star Wildlife Rescue, Bellville, TX):

Rebecca has worked with government agencies to facilitate the transfer of wildlife to Texas from Louisiana. She has completed the paperwork and is presently the only rehabilitator to hold the required permit, but is in contact with larger groups in her area regarding transfer, placement and legalities.

Caveats: Texas rehabilitators are required to work with the Texas Animals Health Commission and other agencies; USFWS will work on a case-by-case basis with birds.

Note that all wildlife from Louisiana must be kept separate from Texas wildlife; all Louisiana wildlife must be returned to Louisiana for release. Rabies vector species and deer (CWD) may not be transported to Texas.
